If loading a boat onto a trailer without keel or side hull rollers, make sure the trailer is submerged in the water when the boat is loaded by the Hand Winch. Attempting to drag the boat onto the trailer while on land can cause Winch failure, boat damage, and possible injury. 20.

Keep hands away from a load bearing Strap and the Winch’s internal mechanism when operating. 22. WARNING! If the Hand Winch fails to move a load after exerting pressure on the Handle, the load may be too heavy for the Winch. If this occurs, release pressure and immediately discontinue using the Winch. 23. WARNING! The warnings and cautions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
